Banded_Beauty 71 Posted December 26, 2016 Soooo ready for tomorrow and my 2nd fill. Currently at 4cc and hoping they will put 2cc more in my band. Really wanting to feel the presence of my band. So far everything is good and I've lost 28lbs but more inches than pounds. LapBand ~ November 1, 2016 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banded_Beauty 71 Posted December 28, 2016 Mine is defiantly to slow but maybe it will get better now with more restriction. @@Treadmillwalker LapBand ~ November 1, 2016 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Treadmillwalker 486 Posted December 29, 2016 I'm counting calories to help me keep on track. It would be easy for me to eat carbs if I allowed myself chips, bread, ice cream, etc. Banded 10/12/16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Treadmillwalker 486 Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) cheese, crackers, chips, dip...I have to keep it out of my sight or I dig in. Hubby is great about putting the Snacks and Cookies is a cabinet I can't reach without a step ladder, and he put the step ladder down the basement. LOL he knows me well.

Banded_Beauty 71 Posted December 29, 2016 I wonder why you're so nauseous? I haven't been at all except when I had the stomach bug LapBand ~ November 1, 2016 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cz.99 20 Posted December 31, 2016 I'm thinking it was something like a 24 HR thing. Feeling fine now. I'm just having to really work hard on eating really small meals...my fill seems to restrict me to about half of what I was eating. 1/2 of 4oz is hardly worth the effort of eating.

Treadmillwalker 486 Posted December 31, 2016 I'm having a difficult time eating too. I'm at 5.5 cc. My husband said he thinks my bites of food are too big. I use to eat a golf ball size meatball in 3 bites. Today I did that and about died. I ate my second one over 10 minutes and in 10 small bites.
